Hardware Installation 2.3.2 Power Injector System An AP-7131 receives power directly form a 48V AC-DC power supply (Part No. 50-14000-247R) or via an Ethernet cable connected to the GE1/POE port. Single radio model AP-7131s always operate using a full power NOTE configuration.

AP-7131 Access Point: Installation Guide A separate Power Injector is required for each AP-7131 comprising the network. The Power Injector can be installed free standing, on an even horizontal surface or wall mounted using the power injector’s wall mounting key holes. The following guidelines should be adhered to before cabling the Power Injector to an Ethernet source and an AP-7131: •...

The AP-7131 can attach to a wall, mount under a suspended T-Bar or above a ceiling (plenum or attic). Choose one of the following mounting options based on the physical environment of the coverage area. Do not mount the AP-7131 in a location that has not been approved in a site survey. 2.4.1 Wall Mounting Wall mounting requires hanging the AP-7131 along its width (or length) using the pair of slots on the bottom of the unit and using the AP-7131 mounting template (on the next page) for the screws.

AP-7131 Antenna Options 9. Place the large center opening of each of the mount slots over the screw heads. 10. Slide the AP-7131 down along the mounting surface to hang the mount slots on the screw heads. Ensure you are placing the antennas on the correct connectors...

It is recommended the AP-7131 be mounted with the RJ45 cable NOTE connector oriented upwards or downwards to ensure proper operation. 11. Cable the AP-7131 using either the Power Injector solution or an approved line cord and power supply. For Motorola Power Injector installations: a.

To install the AP-7131 on a ceiling T-bar: 1. Motorola recommends you loop a safety wire — with a diameter of at least 1.01 mm (.04 in.), but no more than 0.158 mm (.0625 in.) — through the tie post (above the AP-7131’s console connector) and secure the loop.

6. Align the bottom of the ceiling T-bar with the back of the AP-7131. 7. Orient the AP-7131 chassis by its length and the length of the ceiling T-bar. 8. Rotate the AP-7131 chassis 45 degrees clockwise. 9. Push the back of the AP-7131 chassis on to the bottom of the ceiling T-bar.

5. Create a light pipe path hole in the target position on the ceiling tile. 6. Use a drill to make a hole in the tile the approximate size of the AP-7131 LED light pipe. Motorola recommends care be taken not to damage the finished...

Hardware Installation 8. Connect the light pipe to the bottom of the AP-7131. Align the tabs and rotate approximately 90 degrees. Do not over tighten. 9. Fit the light pipe into hole in the tile from its unfinished side. 10. Place the decal on the back of the badge and slide the badge onto the light pipe from the finished side of the tile.

Ensure the cable length from the Ethernet source (host) to the Power Injector and AP-7131 does not exceed 100 meters (333 ft). The Power Injector has no On/Off power switch. The Power Injector receives power as soon as AC power is applied. For more information on using the Power Injector, see “...

Hardware Installation 2.5 LED Indicators Five LEDs illuminate on the front of the AP-7131 (on top of the AP-7131 housing) for dual radios models and four illuminate for single radio models. One LED (for above the ceiling installations) is located on the back of the device.

2.5.4 Rear AP-7131 LED The LED on the rear (bottom) of the AP-7131 is viewed using a single (customer installed) extended light pipe, adjusted as required to suit above the ceiling installations. A LED displayed using the light pipe has the following display and functionality: LED 7 Blinking Red indicates booting.
